LabExact Polypropylene (PP) Syringe Filters, 0.22 µm, 25 mm, 100/Pk - LE-IWT-ES10135
A syringe filter's small hold-up volume limits sample loss, a meaningful difference when working with a limited or precious sample. The polypropylene membrane holds up to aggressive process chemistries while delivering nominal retention with high dirt-loading capacity and keeps water out during solvent and gas-purge steps. Polypropylene construction maintains a low-dead-volume internal flow path while pressing snugly against the membrane during the pass and arrives factory-sterilized and individually sealed for sterile use. Where bench-scale prep must move quickly from one sample to the next, each sample starts as clean as the last without a carry-over risk or a cleaning step between uses.
Membrane Characteristics
- PP/PE depth medium tolerates progressive particle accumulation as dirt-holding capacity fills
- Captures coarse particles near the surface and fine particles deeper within
- Aqueous liquid is repelled while air passes freely through
- Nonpolar surface chemistry favors organic solvents and other non-aqueous liquids
- Metal-ion leaching resistance holds during acid-digested sample filtration
Housing Characteristics
- Polypropylene density near 0.90 g/cm3 keeps housing weight low relative to denser engineering plastics
- Impact-tolerant polypropylene body withstands routine bench handling without damage
- Polypropylene housing retains its chemical integrity under vaporized hydrogen peroxide decontamination cycles used in aseptic processing isolators
- Rated operating pressure supports filtration of high-resistance and viscous samples without housing distortion
An aggressive solvent can leach or break down a vulnerable filter and carry debris into your prep. Solvent-stream filtration handles the solvents and reagents your methods rely on across the organic solvents and harsh reagents your methods use.
